Materials Data on TbCoC by Materials Project

TbCoC crystallizes in the tetragonal P4_2/mmc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Tb3+ is bonded to four equivalent C4- atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing TbC4 tetrahedra. All Tb–C bond lengths are 2.52 Å. Co1+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent C4- atoms. Both Co–C bond lengths are 1.81 Å. C4- is bonded to four equivalent Tb3+ and two equivalent Co1+ atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing CTb4Co2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–61°.

Finite element analysis of thermal barrier coatings

The near-term objective is to develop an understanding of the states of stresses and strains in a Zirconia-yttria thermal barrier coating (TBC) experiencing a given temperature drop. Results so obtained are expected to facilitate experimental work. In order to gain realistic insights into the distribution of stresses and strains in a complex TBC, the finite element approach was selected to model a cylindrical TBC specimen. Experimental evidence reported in the literature indicated the presence of rough interface between the ceramic coat and bond coat. Oxidation of the bond coat at ceramic-bond interface was observed, as was a small amount of cracking in the ceramics near the ceramic-bond interface. To account for these complex features, a plane-strain finite element computer program known as TBCOC was developed, taking advantage of a generic computer code known as MARC. This generic code was made available through the use of a supercomputer (Cray 1). The TBCOC model contains 1316 nodal points and 2140 finite elements. It is capable of a uniform isothermal loading. Results of a sample computer run are presented.
